Like his attempts to swim over the dark water of the river that lies between him and the object of his affections, twelve-year-old Dougaldo Montmigny struggles against oppression, homophobia and racis

Materials for type III solar cells have branched into a series of generic groups. These include organic ‘small molecule’ and polymer conjugated structures, fullerenes, quantum dots, copper indium gall

Small solid particles adsorbed at liquid interfaces arise in many industrial products and process, such as anti-foam formulations, crude oil emulsions and flotation. They act in many ways like traditional surfactant molecules, but offer distinct advantages. However, the understanding of how these particles operate in such systems is minimal. This book brings together the diverse topics actively being investigated, with contributions from leading experts in the field. After an introduction to the basic concepts and principles, the book divides into two sections. The first deals with particles at planar liquid interfaces, with chapters of an experimental and theoretical nature. The second concentrates on the behaviour of particles at curved liquid interfaces, including particle-stabilized foams and emulsions and new materials derived from such systems. This collection will be of interest to academic researchers and graduate students in chemistry, physics, chemical engineering, pharmacy,

Raised by a loving chicken from an egg she found abandoned, Gander the goose grows to display bravery and independence. He inspires his fearful adoptive family, and encourages a spirit of adventure fo

This is a delightful tale about little Lee-Lee, a lovely young girl who was born with small, pointed fingers that had a dusting of soft fur. Because Lee-Lee's hands are different from other children's

Trusting Technology is about adapting to new ways of life and work. Technology merely provides the platform. When we talk about the challenges of technology, we're really talking about the challeng
